Summary
The game kicked off with each player setting their board states and casting their commanders. Jerry, commanding Ragavan, Nimble Pilferer, took an aggressive stance with early game attacks and generating treasures. Alex, with Kinnan, Bonder Prodigy, focused on amassing mana while Eliot, commanding Cazur and Ukkima, aimed to set up his Food Chain combo. Jan, piloting The Master of Keys, had a slower start but began to set up his graveyard for his commander's escape ability. A Trinisphere from Alex slowed the game down, requiring all players to rethink their strategies. Jerry then attempted to cast Ad Nauseam, which was a notable turning point in the game.
